My 87 gn is pretty much stock other than an adjustable fpr, adj wastegate snd dual flowmasters with no cat. I just bought a new ta-60 and I'm also going to get some 009's, all I need now is a better fuel pump. I just got a new stock one and I don't want to replace it so I'm going the inline route, so what sounds like the best inline pump for this setup?

Thanks!!

IMO, bite the bullet on the new stock pump and get a walbro 340 in-tank (and a hot-wire kit, if you like plug-n-play rather than building your own). You could always ebay the stocker, but if it were me, I'd put in on the shelf for a rainy day.

BTW, on the 009s, I'd bite the bullet there too and go with 50s at a minimum, or maybe those newer high-z 55s, or 57s, whatever they really are. Yeah, it's a bit more $, but you either buy 'em now, or be buying them later when you turn up the wick on your new TA60. Dunno if chip makers have much experience with the 55/57s, though... 50s, no problem.

IMO, Skip the 009s, and get the 50's.
Then get a Walbro 340.
Do it all, right, once, and simply.
Don't forget a hot wire kit for the fuel pump.

Make that 3 for 3. 009 are too small for the 60. IMO. For the price of a good external that will be able to make up for pulling fuel through the stock pump, you can have the 340 and a hotwire kit (~$160 Racetronix). you will be much further ahead, and no annoying excessive FP noise.
